But to return to the Parliament of Canada. The Grits built high their hopes upon the result of the budget debate. They protracted it day after day, trusting that something might be elicited in the Tarte-McGreevy case, or in the depart- mental investigations which would turn to their advantage. But the longer they waited, the worse they fared. The dissen- sionsin their own ranks had time to Increase and the breaches to widen. Casey had Ananias Cameron and Mcldullen by the throat: Mulock would not be dictated to by C \rtwright: Charlton was chafing under the Philosopher Mills had read him

iecture

about his Sunday Observance Bill; Welsh had irritated them by fraternizing with Abbott at the Club and then going home;

and several of the young French members were particularly fractious. Then, again, some of the new blood was asserting itself altogether too prominently to t the leaders of the party, and it was impossible to restrain it. Mr. Fraser, of Guysboro, the biggest man in the House, and an ex- member of the Nova Scotia cabinet, gives them a lot of troukle,—he does not drive well in harness, neither does Mr. Flint, of

su

Yarmouth, nor Mr. Devlin, of Ottawa County, who never opens his mouth but he puts his foot

in it, nor Mr. Hyman, who defe ated John Carling, of London, and who considers himself considerable pumpkins because he beat a cabinet minister. These men, and the like of them, charge of the debate tock and propounded their own theories, utterly regardless of the leader of the opposition and of the prominent counsellors of that party,whose annoyance was hard to conceal, and was indeed evidenced by the fact that neither Laurier, Davies, Mills nor Mulock took part in the debate. Mr, Savard, the well dressed young Frenchman who defeat- ed Sir Adolphe Caron in Chicoutinie, plainly told them he would not support them, and they had hard work to persuade him to take a trip fur his health, so as to avoid the spectacle of his voting with the Government. Mr. Tarte, whose action against Sir Hector Langevin has ranged him on the other side of the House, told them they need expect no support from him, and so he absented himself, as did also Mr. Gibson, for reasons best known to himself. Several days before the division took place, the op- position knew their weakness, and the only thing left them was to postpone the evilevent as long as possible. But it had to come, and it came at o'clock on Wednesday morning, 26th July, just as day was breaking. | had been on hand all night, and for want of something better to do had smoked myself black in the face. Joe Foran had exhausted his fund of humor and had succumbed to the sweet-restorer, and [| would fain have followed suit, but a vile fly decreed other- wise, when the division bell rang out its noisy clatter. Rubbing the slvep out of our eyes we made for the galleries, which all night long had held a aumber of strag- glers, to say nothing of a bevy of ladies who were bound to bein atthe death. There had been a dinner the evening befure (for this was morning, mind you) in the Commons Restaurant to Col. Howard Vincent, M P.,

for Sheffield, England, the delegate of the United Empire Trade League, at which

nearly one hundred guests were present,

the majority being Conservative members.

These gentlemen, at the call of the bell,

flocked into the House in full evening

dress, and rare good humor, while the

opposition sat stolid, stupefied and svulless.

Then J. J. Curran of Montreal, sang ‘* Old

King Cole,” and after him Col. Prior gave

“Phe Red White and Blue,” and by that

time the whips marched in and all was

ready for the supreme moment. The

Speaker put the question on the amend-

ment and asked those in favor of it to rise.

The Clerk Assistant turned, as is custem-

ary, to the Governmeat side, but in vain did

he look and wait and look for a signal of

acquiescence. The Government ranks were

closed and solid against the insidious

scheme. At last the division is over and the result declared. The amendment is defeated by 114 to 88, a majority of 26 Immediately there arose cheer after cheer which, for sone minutes, the Speaker was powerless to repress. Then, after a formal motion the House adjourned and while the Grits, im rout and confusion, hurried from the Chamber, the Oonservatives kept their Live ohn, ne Gok sare the Queen. 1 im various kinds of gatherings

al

he would spend it for his father’s election, and he had probably talked to the Connollys about the election,

as it was a very interesting topic of con- versation at the time, But the Connollys vave him no money, and he had used none, and if Onesime Thibault said that he had tuld him differently, Oaesime was not telling the truth. He explained the ap- pearance of his name in Connolly's books in this way. He and Thibsult had jointly taken Sout a patent for a new kind of ladder and in connection therewith he had berrow- ed $600 from Mr. Hume, engineer for | Connolly’s contracts. He had given Hume lhis note therefor, and on Hume leaving Cinnolly’s employ he had suld the note to the Connolly's. Part of the note had been paid, but a portion was still due.

Onesime Thibault being called, said La- force Langevin had told him that Con- nolly’s had given $5,000 for his father’s

election, and that he had sent it to Three Rivers by Jue Lachance. Onesime said he himself was a Grit and Lingevin had sub squeotly boasted to him that he had saved the Three Rivers election. Joe Lachance being called said Thibault was away off; that such a thing had never taken p'ace as Langevin giving him money for the Three Rivers election So much for that inei- dent. Mr. Perley, Jr., an engineer em- ployed on the Kingston Dry Duck was ex- amined as to Robert McGreevy’s evidence, that he had beea psid $2,000 to give to his father. He positively denied the charge in every shap3and form. It hav- ing been suggested that Mr. Perley might have some other son, the witness replied

he had a young brother who had been 4 clerk in the Ottawa Bank and who had uever been in Government employ. He,

however, was a confirmed inyalid, and had been confined to his bed for two years.

Robert McGreevy’s cross-ex :mination occupied a long time and was exceedingly unsatisfactory. I spoke last week of the character of the books he preduced and the matter fact way in which he admitied having perjured him- He told the story of his business connection with his brother which, after lasting for some 30 years, had ceased on eccount of his brother’s charging him with dishonesty. He admitted having en- joyed his brother’s contidence and having aad eccess to his private books aud papers, nor did he dare deny that he had abstract- ed such of them ashe wanted. He fre- quently contradicted himself, and being confronted with two diametrically cpposite answers which he had made to the one question, and asked which was the true answer, he cooly repued ‘either may be accepted.” Nothing seemed to abash him in the slightest; he sat there and lied and everyone in the room, who listened to him for five minutes, knew that he was lying The Grit members of the Committee, | am ashamed to say, showed great solicitude for this infamous ijiar and tried by various means to protect him. Upou his discharge Mr. FitzPatrick immediately had him sub- poe ised as a witness for the defence with orders to produce al! the letters of Thomas McGreevy that he had in’ his possession from 1882 tv 1820, all letters’ written by himself to Thomas, all his books of account and other papers.

The Committee having required Sir Hec- tor Langevin to produce all telegrams ex- changed between himself, Thomas Mc- Greevy and Baker and Shakespeare, the British Columbia members, Sir Hector explained that all official telegrams were produced, but private telegrams he was not in the habit of preserving.

Mr. R. R. Dobell, a business man of Quebec for 33 years past, ex-President of the Board of Trade and a Harbor Commis- sioner, gave important evidence. He showed that the whole trouble originated in the Mackenzie Government making the Harbor Commission a political body, creating the Commissioners salaried offi- cers, and appointing a lot of incapable party heelers thereto as a reward for politi- cal services. He showed that it was abso- lutely impossible for the Commissioners to have formed any opinion of the relative position of the tenderers with a view to exercising favoritism, as the tenders were uot moneyed out. After the tenders were opened they were sent to Ottawa in com- pliance with instructions, and he was per- fectly clear and positive that nobody, from what was done with the tenders when opened, could form any idea of their rela- tive value. Neither he nor any member of the Board, as far as he knew, had any suspicion of Robert McGreevy’s connection with the contractors for two years after the contract was let. When he wld Thomas McGreevy of it, the latter emphatically and angrily denied it. He regarded Thomas McGreevy’s position upon the Board, ia relation to the Public Works Dzpartiment and to Sir Hector, as nothing irregular. Thomas McGreevy, being conversant with large contracts, gave the benefit of his ex- perience to the Harbor - Commission. Coming to Ottawa so frequently as he did, Thomas McGreevy was regarded as the natural inedium by which the Commis- sioners learned the Minister's views. Mr. Valin, the Chairman of the Harbor Com- missioners, claimed that he himself was all poweriul in Ottawa and was running the Government, but ke (Dobel!) had voted against Valin from the tirst and maintained a steady = against him, as he believed Him incapable of performine the f Chairman coaieal In like cee ae , B.

blow hot and cold with him. He has al- ways appeared to me to be better up in the details of his department than any man I know. He was always asking in regard to the tremendous cost of the works, and whether they were going to be useful. His anxiety was always very keen. He was always in earnest. 1 believe no man had ever the interest of Quebec more at heart thau Sir Hector Langevin.” Me. Dobell being asked, cited instances of the govern- meut having acted directly contrary to Mr. McGreevy’s advice with regard to the har- bor works.

The painful incident connected with Mr. Perley’s re-examination I have already in- formed youof. He said he had reported that Gallagher's tender was too low, but he could not say upon what data he had formed his opiaion ualess it was upon the estimate of quantities and report of bis assistant, Mr. Bovd. Hesaid he had nothing to do with preparing the quantities, but accepted the infyrmation prepired for him by assistants in whom he had perfect confidence and acted uponit. Some of the peern ae ap meneing to worry him with questions whether he wh he had fulfilled his duty in accepting such statements and nov en- quiring into the trath of the matter himself when he collapsed and amid sobs and tears he cried, “‘E know nothing about it beyond what I have told this committee. IT was no more interested in this than in any other of the works upon which [ reported, and honestly I can tell you nothing more. Thea he fainted away aod was carried from the room. The poor man has suffered several years from heart-divease and the worry of this investigation has completely broken him down, Each time that he has attended the committee, his medical man has accompanied him fearing the consequences. Perley was telling the truth, John Edward Boyd was his assistant on these works—a man_ well known on the Island, and everyone acquainted with Mr. Boyd's honorable record will say that Mr. Perley was perfectly justified in depending upon his report and figures. Mr. Boyd stood equally high in his profession with Mr. Perley, and the latter would never dream of doubting Mr, Boyd's calculations,

Captain Larkin, the senior member of the firm of Larkin, Connolly & Co, then took the stand. It should ke premised that Gaptain Larkin is a good gy it—that he has been president of the Grit Association of the County of Lincoln for six years, and that he ig a stockholder in the Globe newspaper. He stated that he had not much to do with the contracts under investigation, as he was interested in other contracts most of the time independent of the Connollys, Murphy & McGreevy. Soon after Murphy was taken into the firm, he made up his mind to get out for be did not like Murphy's dealinga and he pliialy told him ani MoGreevy that they were robbing the firm. He had agreed to contribute to Quebec election funds; but he did the same himself for the grits in Outario whenever he was asked and liberally too. He had never had any dealings with Thomas McGreevy and was neyer juformed that any of the ficm’s money wag paid to Thomas Metreevy or Sir Heetor. Captain Narkin knew nothing of Murphy's record until after he joined the firm sometime. He never borrowed money from Murphy. He denied Murphy's statement that he was present when the $10,000 payment to Sir Hector was discussed. la numerous points he directly contradicted Murphy and Robert McGreevy. He told how the Globe had at one time bitterly opposed alterations in the Esquimault graving dock, as being in the in- terest of the contracto:s; that he had re- monstrated with Mr. Edgar; and the result was that soon after the Globe turned round and warmly supported the changes. letter to Edgar is to be p-oduced if it can be found.

Thomas McGreevy was examined before 4 sub-committee regirding his books. He pro- duced everything in his possession; he wag not in the habit of keeping private Jettera and such as he retained had been stolen from the safe to which his brother Robert had access.
